Rooms (rates from $75 to $95) feature simple, modern furniture with soft carpet and silky sheets. Complimentary water bottles stock the in-room fridges, and most rooms include flat-screen TVs and DVD players (guests can borrow from a long list of DVDs to watch during their stays). Free Wi-Fi is a nice perk, and the Olive Branch is a popular on-site restaurant and bar.

Sound tends to carry through the thin walls of the building, so be prepared for some ambient noise, but overall, the Hotel Greenfield is a gem in small-town Iowa.
